MKN Induction Cooking Table 7EHEI051DWP5 – Wok, Electric

5 kW of electrical power dedicated to a single wok position sets the scale of the MKN 7EHEI051DWP5. Latent and sensible heat emissions are specified at 140 W and 350 W, so a small fraction of the input appears as heat in the room.

On a vessel this balance between input and emission matters. Galley cooling and make-up air are constrained by what the HVAC plant can absorb; a wok station that sheds 140 W of latent and 350 W of sensible heat is easier to integrate into a closed galley than an open burner with a higher heat rejection. The electrical supply is specified as 380–415 V, which matches the three-phase distributions commonly chosen for marine projects and avoids the need to engineer around a non-standard supply on board.

The 7EHEI051DWP5 is an electric induction cooking table configured as a wok position rather than a flat hob. The 5 kW rating is focused on fast, high-temperature wok work while keeping the equipment to a single cooking point, which suits galleys where one cook works that station during peak service. Because emissions are quoted explicitly at 140 W latent and 350 W sensible, the naval architect and HVAC designer can take those values straight into their load calculations, instead of relying on allowances based on a generic electric range. For a refurbishment, that makes this a relatively simple substitution where the electrical supply is already in the 380–415 V band.

Compliance with DIN 18851 for commercial kitchens gives a defined framework for construction and hygiene on the body of the appliance. That standardised approach to design is relevant where the vessel is being reviewed against shore-based kitchen norms as well as marine guidance. The hinged lid contributes to both energy management and cleanliness: when closed, it limits convective and vapour carry-over from the hot wok well into the room, and it shields the cooking surface from airborne contamination between services. With the lid down, the specified 140 W latent and 350 W sensible heat figures help indicate that the environmental impact during idle periods is low compared with the electrical input rating.

IP-rated water protection is part of making the unit compatible with shipboard cleaning routines. In a galley where equipment is washed down rather than wiped around, the stated IP protection allows operators to clean as specified without resorting to improvised shielding or exclusions around the wok table. That has a direct bearing on how the unit is positioned relative to drains and splash zones.

Build and control

• Complies with DIN 18851 for commercial kitchens
• Hinged lid over the wok cooking area
• IP-rated water protection

This model fits a galley that needs a single, electrically heated wok point on a 380–415 V supply and where the heat and moisture load on the space has to stay within tight limits that can be quantified up front. It is the wrong choice where the concept calls for a full wok line with several positions in continuous use; in that case, larger bodies or parallel wok modules from the same manufacturer should be examined so that throughput matches the menu.
